J.CREW love!

 

These days I am loving the style of J.Crew. Over the years they have really defined their look and have become the go to for how to style your clothes. Flowers with polka dots and prints with plaids, J.Crew knows how to put it all together. While I know what I like, I sometimes can’t see the vision of how to wear different things together. But I have found the most amazing stylist to help me get outside of my comfort zone.

 

 

IMG_2763Karen Blackburn from J.Crew in Yorkdale Mall is amazing! She is always so helpful, yet there is never any pressure to buy. Karen will be honest about what looks good and what doesn’t, and is a master at putting things together. If you find yourself at Yorkdale this summer, please check out J.Crew, and tell Karen that Sharon from geewizz says hi!

Stay tuned for special events coming soon!  Brought to you exclusively from J.Crew and geewizz. Happy shopping!

Homemade Lemonade

imagesMy kids love lemonade. So refreshing on a hot day. The thing I don’t like about store bought lemonade is how much sugar there is in it. The only way to control that, is to make your own. Here is a recipe posted on one of my favourite blogs…The Pioneer Woman. Enjoy!

Summer Sweet

Just a little less than a year ago I did a post on the Zoku popsicle maker. The Zoku is a fun and easy way to make homemade healthy popsicles. This year I had to post again on the Zoku, as they have come out with some awesome accessories. The social media popsicles would be so fun at a summer party, and I am sure the new slush and shake makers are going to be all the rage with kids. Also a great idea for summer birthday or hostess gifts!
